In an interview with MzGee on the ‘The Gist’ after his performance at the ‘Move Concert’ credited the success of the track to the lyrics being in English.

“It could be one of the reasons because it’s simple, everybody understands what you are saying so basically it helps you communicate very well to people who don’t speak your native language,” he said.

MOG explained that it is now the biggest song on his album.

“‘Be Lifted’ is all over Nigerian, US, UK, Zambia and Kenya, basically all over and it's just by the Grace of God,” the excited singer said.
